"What a House-Elf Wants"
I wanna thank you
For giving me
Time to read
Like a rock you waited so patiently
While I put studies together
While I figured things out (yeah yeah)
I only have three more books to read
So I need to go back to the library
It ain't called "spew" Ron
That's for sure
Now are you reading and willing to free some more
(chorus)
'Cause that's what house-elves want
What house-elves need
Days off and Holidays are necessities
And I'm helping them to find out exactly
What house-elves want
What house-elves need
Whatever keeps them paid and free
And I'm asking you to join S.P.E.W. with me
'Cause what they want
Isn't what they got
And what they got
Isn't what they want
At this point in time they are blind they are so confused (yeah yeah)
They'll slave all day and even hide it all from you
But house-elves I know you better (yeah)
Then you know yourselves (laaaaahhh-ooooooohhhhh!!)
I say if you like your house-elf then set it free
If it comes back asking for wages that means it's talked to me
Good service ain't for free
Now that's for sure
Now are you ready and willing to give them more
(chorus)
What house-elves want
What house-elves need
Somebody who can give them clothes and food and a week's paying
What house-elves want
What house-elves need
Oooooooooooooh yeah!
What house-elves want (so right)
What house-elves need (so easy)
You let the elves know how much you care about them I said
I'm the one who always kneeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeewwwwwwwwwww
What house-elves want
What house-elves need
Ooooooooh and I'm thanking you for joining S.P.E.W. with me
What house-elves want
What house-elves need
Whatever stops this slavery is what they neeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeed
(chorus)
